A continuation of this study of Uvigerina and its related genera has resulted in numerous studies which may be of general interest. Thirty-two Paleogene small Rotaliid benthic foraminiferal species of this genus and other related genera are common in eighteen localities in the Northern and Southern Tethys (USA, Mexico, Ecuador, Venezuela, Cuba, Caribbean, Chile, Argentina, France, Germany, Italy, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, Nigeria, Jordan, United Arab Emirates (UAE), Pakistan). The taxonomy of the genus Uvigerina d’Orbigny with the other three related genera (i.e. Rectuvigerina Mathews, Euuvigerina Thalmann and Uvigerinella Cushman are presented and discussed.
